Can I add or hide certain pages on my Wedding Website?

Sure. You can add, hide or rearrange pages from your Wedding Website dashboard. Make it yours.

How do I control who can RSVP on my website?

By default, anyone can submit an RSVP on your Wedding Website and we’ll automatically add the new names to your guest list. Want to keep things VIP only? Don’t worry—we’ve got a red velvet rope ready for you. First, create your Guest List on The Knot. Then turn on “Secure RSVP” from your Wedding Website dashboard (you’ll find it under “Additional Settings”). Now only people on your guest list can RSVP.

Do I have to display an RSVP on my website?

Nope! We would never make you do anything; that’s not our style. But we do want to make life easier for you and your guests. And trust us, an online RSVP will make collecting and tracking your Guest List so. much. better. Still not a fan? Just head to your Wedding Website dashboard and select “No” for the events you want to hide RSVPs.

OK, I’m sold on online RSVPs. How does it work?

Our online RSVP is like having your own snazzy virtual doorman. White gloves and all. When you create your free Wedding Website on The Knot, we’ll display an RSVP tab on your site automatically. When guests enter their name, they’ll see a list of all the events you’ve invited them to, from your shower to the after party. From here, they can RSVP to each event, select meal choices and add any +1 information if you’re having guests of guests.

Once they’ve RSVP'd, you’ll both receive confirmation emails and your Guest List will be updated. Need to make edits? Guests can submit a new RSVP or your can update your list manually anytime. Super simple.

Can I choose what to display on the RSVP form?

You can choose the events you want RSVPs for and the type of information you want to collect (AKA +1s, meal choices, etc...). To do this, edit “Other Events” in the “Our Wedding” section of your Wedding Website dashboard or in the “Events” section of your Guest List Manager.

While there’s no way to create custom questions right now, your guest can leave a comment when they RSVP to note any allergies, questions or song requests [dancing lady emoji].

How can I block my website from showing up on Google?

Most guests will try to Google your website. TBH it’s just easier than remembering your website address. On the other hand, if you’re not feeling the idea of strangers on the internet finding your Wedding Website, we got you. Here’s how to hide your Wedding Website from search engines:

Under "Website Visibility" switch the toggle for "Allow your site to appear in search engines" to “No” and save.

After 30 days your website will no longer be searchable.

What if I want to control who can see my website?

If you want to stop people from finding your website through Google or another search engine, scroll up for the how-to. If you want people to find your website through search (our rec), but you want to control who can actually see it, set a password. That way guests can find it but you still have privacy. To put your website on lock, go to your Wedding Website dashboard and then “Privacy Settings” to set a password.

Can I create a personalized URL that doesn’t have “theknot.com” in it?

The best wedding websites let you do you, that includes having your own personalized URL. You can upgrade to a personalized domain anytime from your Wedding Website dashboard. Get the run down here.

Can I display hotel room blocks on my Wedding Website?

You betcha. Better yet, you can set up your hotel room blocks right from your Wedding Website dashboard thanks to our friends at Hotel Planner.

How do I add my gift registries and cash funds to my Wedding Website?

If you created gift registries with the same email as your account on The Knot, we’ll automatically sync those registries to your Wedding Website. You literally don’t have to do anything. Or you can add registries manually if you used a different email address.

Unlike other Wedding Website platforms that only show registry links, we give you the ability to display gifts from select retailers directly on your Wedding Website. It’s like having your own personal online shop! That way guests can easily find exactly what you’re wishing for.

What about cash funds? Glad you asked. Any cash and experience registries you’ve created will show up directly on your Wedding Website.

How do I get my guests’ photos to show up on my Wedding Website?

You can add guest photos from your Instagram wedding hashtag or other digital guest photo sharing apps, like The Guest App, directly to your Wedding Website. How’s that for awesome? Go to the Photos section on your Wedding Website dashboard to add an album from Instagram, Facebook, your computer or another device.

Can I upload as many photos as I want to my Wedding Website?

Yes—and for free! Unlike other providers, we don’t charge for photo uploads. Go ahead and add all those throwbacks as well as engagement photos, and of course, the proposal. (Need help with uploading photos? Head over here.) Your guests will love scrolling through your archives. Speaking of guests, now you can capture every snap and video from every guest in one place with The Guest App. Game-changer.

Can I delete my Wedding Website?

Of course, you can delete your Wedding Website whenever you want. Honestly though, it makes an amazing wedding keepsake, so why not keep it up? It’s also a great way to share wedding photos after the events (thanks to The Guest App) as well as your honeymoon photos.
